MONDAY, ocronm i4. ma. At The Crossroads

Canada stands today at the crossroads. The voters by their ballots today will determine the road which she will take for the next five years. The campaign issues have been fully threshed out, and it is needless to review them here. The main issue, as PREMIER BENNETT so strongly emphasized in liis Charlottetown speech, is the maintenance and safeguarding of the Empire trade agreements which saved Canada from’

bankruptcy after it had been deprived of its ' foreign markets under MR. llIAcxcNzii-z KING.

Tlie Empire trade agreements come up for re- iiewal in i937, and it is essential that if they are to be preserved and extended the negotiations should be in the hands of the Canadian states- men who originated them.

MR. BENNETT is also undeniably right in saying that his Government has negotiated more trade agreements with other countries than any previous administration And-what is equally important, the guiding rule of the BENNETT Government has not been simply the mutual ex- change of concessions, but insistence that for every concession given one of equal value is secured in return, and that no concession given places any foreigner or foreign interest in a position of advantageover Canadians.

Canadzfs present offer to the United States is based upon this ideal. Neither Canadian farin- er: nor rvorkers nor the Empire trade agree- ments tctill be sacrificed.

Non-lsartisan And Authoritative

'The local Liberal press is authority for the ‘statdnent that the monthly letters of the Bank- ing institutions of Canada form the most reliable guide as to the progress of the country out of the depression. At this particular time, therefore, the following comment from the September letter of the Royal Batik of Canada. should be of great value to the electors in passing judgment on the most vital issue of the present election campaign. It is the contention of Mr. King and his follow- ers that the Bennett policies are largely respons- ible for the depression in Canada. It is the con- tention of Premier Bennett and his followers that iii comparison with other countries. and particularly with the United States, the richest country iii the world. Canada’s position—thanks to the same BENNETT policics—is most favorable. '\\'hicli of these statements iscorrect? Here is what the Royal Bank experts have to say on the subject : _

"Explain the greater resilience if you will. by the statement that Canada is a young and vigorous country coming into rugged stature, but nevertheless almost all comparable indiccs show that (Xanadu has made more progress to- ward rccovcry than has the United States. Ac- cording to the index of physical volume of pro- duction, total production in Canada in the first six months of 1935 Teas slightly above parity with the Ice/cl of the first six months of I926, while the United States has attained only 8o per cent of such parity. Where the volume of elec-

‘ trical energy generated in Canada in the first

six months of 1935 amounted to 11,380 million k.\v.h., the amount generated in the first six months of 1926 amounted to 5,609 million k.w.li. The comparable figures for the United States are 47,564 million and 35,547 million k.w.h. In both countries the volume of production in this key industry has made remarkable progress during the period, but on a proportionate basis Canada has short-x far greater improvement. Canadian exports in the first half of I926 zvere 26 pcr ccnl as large as those of the Uinitcd States and they were 29 pcr cent as large as lliasc 0f the United Sta/cs in the first half of I935. In both countries there has been a heavy decline in volume and value of exports and imports, but the decline has been heavier in the United .S‘tatcs.”

Notes By The Way

"Change for change’; sake l; n, bad policy for the motoring ln- dustry. I think the time has come when we might make a stand against it." This statement was made at lnngbrtdge last month by Sir Herbert Austin, when be un- nounced his new season's models to an audience of more than 1,000 motor dealers 1mm all parts of the country. Slr Herbert's announce- ment will create interest both among the trade and ca: u:ers. “There are," he said, "many un- stable elements in the motor ln- dustry ‘ln spite of its great pros- perity. and one of the most dis- turbing is the frequent altering and redesigning of motleis which the public have come to look up- on as an inevitable yearly occurrence. This brings in its train market disturbances and puts upon sec- ond-liund models a low value which la entirely fictitious.

It in repelled from Western On- tario that, the‘ provincial depart- ment of game and fisheries has decided to follow the example of Scotland and to establish sports hunting areas in various sections of that part of Ontario, areas of waste or unimproved land that will be well stocked with grouse and other game blrds during the years to come. The idea ls a thoroughly excellent one. There are various barren, rocky areas in this sec- tlon which should never have been and upon which those farmers who remain are merely struggling to obtain a living. Fur better that, they should be returned to the Crown for the purpose of promoting forest growth, to be cultivated when trees reach maturity. and of conserving wlld life. It is said that Scotland an- nually collects over $10,000,000 ln shooting licenses and other fees from sportsmen attracted to her grouse preserves annually-Brock- ville Recorder anclTlmes.

WORRXING ABOUT SLEEPLESSNESS

“If I could only get. some steep, 1 would be all right."

This is the plaintive cry of many patients as they consult their phy- siclatis.

And it is only too true that with- out rest and sleep, none of us, even if we are not really sick, can feel ready for mental or physical work.

1n speaking of lnsonmla or sleep- lessness Dr. Gordon B. Kainman in Minnesota Medicine says, “By far the most numerous and most, diffi- cult cases of insomnia. are those due to mental worry or distress — emo- tional disturbances. The treatment in order of importance ls paycotlie- rapy—stralghtenlng out any little mental or emotional disturbances, physical therapy-heat, massage. baths electricity: and drug ."

Thus we see that Dr. Kommim puts the use of drugs third on the list instead of first; not that drugs are not important or necessary, but

that the emotional disturbances — worry, anxiety, fear. which cause a "tangled skeln" in the mind of the patient must receive the first. and most. attention. This may mean a number of visits to the physlclanb ofilce during which time the men- tal dilllcultles are brought boldly to the surface and discussed freely withthe physician. This very expos- ure to the light of day of these tiff- ficultles is often all that is neces- sary to allay the patients fears re- garding them. .

The [LS8 0f physical therapy ’_ ex- 0111-59. baths, massage, and electric- lty, ‘brings about a strengthening o! the circulation, moves the blood from the brain, and induces a. nat- ural desire for sleep. ~

There are some cases that. may require drugs. but the physician usually sulzltests that the sleeping tablet be left readily at, time by the bedside, and "if needed” the pat- ient may take one. The fact that the tablet is at hand and may be taken if sleep doesn't come la often sufficient to take away the worry about sleep not coming, and the Pfillefll drop-i ofl‘ to sleep.

Lying quietly in bed with knee» and “m5 slightly bent, breathing deeply and keeping the mlnd "us "blank" as possible lowers the blood pressure, lowers the temperature, and reduces the pulse rate, and i. considered to have 80 per cent of the value of sleep. This perfect re- taxation, and three or four hours‘ sleep, should thus prevent any men- tal or physical weakness.

In British Columbia. the "Lum- ber Boom.” aiid curtailing Japan- ese exploitation of industry, has also brought hlm into the zenith of popularity. Here there is a Soc- liillst; and C. C.

Even Ian Maclunzle, the real leader ortlie Liberal party, is booked for certain defeat and it is with confidence claimed that not; more than one of the l4 seats will go Liberal. There Conservatives will have decisive gains, how many it is hard to estimate, but the pull of fate hangs over both ub-zral and Reconstructlonlsts, neither of which will have a look ln. ,

In Alberta and Saskatchewan the "Wheat Boom“ is also telling for- cibly in favor of the Hon. R. B. Bennett. The former, his adopted home country has always held h‘m in high estcem. Although nomin- ally Liberal that province always stood prominently behind Premier Bennett. In these however both Social Credit and Wocdsworth par» ties are admittedly popular.

MB. KING'S GBEID FOB POWER

SlI,—IXl the “Pat-rtot" of the 11th lust. appears the following amazing admission and extraordinary state- ment. "Hon. Mr. King should re- oelve a sufficient majority, that he would not be required to dlcker with this group and that group to ,modlfy hie policies or to comprom- ise tn order t0 carry on the govern- ment." ,

Electors of this Province, Liberals or people who have thought of vot- ing for the King candidates. do you realise what, this means? It means plainly and certainly that although King asks you for your support to carry out policies that you approve of, and expect hlm to carry out if elected, that he will ruthlessly abandon them, to cater to other groups for their support to keep btm in power. His personal ambit- ion wcu‘d be ztronger than his fatthfullness to his supporters.
